GENERAL SAFETY
If one or more components of your earth station are connected to 120 volt AC line current, it
is important that you ground all components of your system, particularly the antenna, to
reduce the possibility of dangerous electrical shock. When using instruments such as the
SNG-2500C, power hand tools, and any other appliance connected to an electrical outlet,
exercise great care to ensure that the device is grounded effectively to avoid electrical
shock. Do not use while standing in water, on damp earth, or while in personal contact with
a conducting surface such as a metal ladder or chair.
Also:
• Use a properly grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.
• Do not cut the grounding pin from the line cord plug.
• Ensure the antenna and other components of your earth station are properly grounded.
• Do not open the case - the warranty will be voided by doing so. No user-servicable parts
are inside.
IMPORTANT CAUTIONS
• Do not couple the input of the SNG-2500C to high power RF sources such as walkie
talkies, CB radios, transmitters, etc. Signal levels in excess of +15 dBm can damage the
sensitive mixers in the instrument resulting in otherwise unnecessary expense and
repairs. Use only the external DC power supply included with the unit.
• Handle with care. The SNG-2500C Spectrum Analyzer is a precision instrument
designed for normal operating and handling conditions. It should be protected from
abuse such as dropping, throwing, and other rough handling. When being transported in
a vehicle, or shipped, the SNG-2500C must be cushioned and protected against shock
and vibration.
